Chapter 44: Befriending the Blazing Gate

We had to be rescued by a high-ranking person, and we ran all the way, and when the sky was about to dawn, our group returned to the Blazing Gate. After a rough count of the number of people, there were 100 people when they went, but less than half when they returned, and the loss was not small. Song Qing said to the disciples who escaped: "This matter started because of me, if it weren't for me, I wouldn't have lost so many good brothers, I Song Qing will definitely go to report this revenge in person, but I will never be as impulsive as this time." Everyone, go back and rest first, and we'll make a decision tomorrow. ”

Song Qing asked Niu Gao to deal with the funeral of the deceased, and asked him to arrange for someone to claim the body of the deceased, and then withdraw the pension from the account office and hand it over to their families one by one. After saying this, Song Qing took a few of us to the meeting room. As soon as I entered the door, I saw a monk and two lay people sitting in the hall. Song Qing smiled embarrassedly and said respectfully, "Yo, brothers, when did you come?"

The Taoist chief was the first to answer, and his tone revealed a little unhappiness: "We have just arrived, and before dawn in the early hours of this morning, someone in the door reported that Master Song led his disciples to find Kong Sanshi to seek revenge. I was about to go looking for you, when a man in black sent me a note with a sleeve arrow, telling me to come here and wait. Then he pointed to the other three people with his hand: "The three of them are the same, they all came after receiving the sleeve arrows of the man in black." You're really, and you keep saying that you treat us as brothers, why don't you discuss such a big matter with us in advance?"

"I'm also impulsive, you listen to me slowly, before that, I'll introduce you to a few friends, all of whom are upright heroes. "Song Qing introduced us to each other, and then I realized that the four people who came here were all famous people on the Eastern Holy Islands.

Sitting on the left side were two monks, and the innermost one was Hua Chenfeng, the head disciple of the Eastern Sage Quanzhen Sect, although he was only about thirty years old, he showed an aura that was no less than those Venerables who practiced in the Immortal Mountain. Sitting there, the fairy wind Dao bones are natural, the height is medium, the body is well-proportioned, and the sword on his back is solemn.

Next to him is the third disciple of the Forgotten Dust Temple, Dao Chun, the great monk, don't look at this monk is only twenty-seven or eighteen years old, but the whole state does not look like it, the fat body, the bright head, a pair of big ears hang down to the shoulders, looking kind and kind. The monk's robe on his body could not hide his bulging belly, and a string of large and round Buddha beads hung around his neck.

And sitting opposite is the two heads of Tingxiang Pavilion Ma Guang and his brother Ma Tai, both of them are thirty years old, although they are crawling out of the belly of a mother, but their appearance is completely different, the elder brother Ma Guang looks very festive, and everyone smiles when he sees him. But the younger brother Ma Taichang had a fierce and evil look, and at first glance, he thought he was the executioner of the vegetable market. The two of them are generally tall, and their bodies are also in the thin category.

Looking at the martial jade on their waists again, it really startled us, all four of them were wearing blue martial artist-level martial jade. You must know that there are not more than 100 people who can wear this martial arts jade on the Eastern Holy Islands, and today we have met four at the same time, and this excitement is self-evident. At the same time, I also admire them very much, almost all of them are the same age, I am only four or five years younger than them, people have such a high level of cultivation, but I am small and pitiful, and my heart is somewhat unpleasant. Wu Yu, who touched himself, glanced at Song Qing's waist intentionally or unintentionally, and then he felt a little comforted in his heart, he was just an iron horse.

After seeing each other, they sat down according to the guest and host, and without waiting to speak, Niu Gao walked in from the outside, because they were very familiar with each other and did not have too much politeness, Niu Gao said to Song Qing: "Master, things are arranged, how do you think about it next?"

Song Qing took a sip of water, put down the water cup and said to Niu Gao: "Let's rest first, I've suffered a crime in the past few days, and when I'm rested, I must go to them again to settle accounts." By the way, how did you know that a few of us were in danger?"

The Niu Gao took out a sleeve arrow and a note from his arms and handed it to Song Qing and said: "I only knew that the head of the family was in trouble after receiving this note, so I took people to the rescue after a long run." ”

Hua Chenfeng on the side took the sleeve arrow from Song Qing's hand, looked at it carefully and said: "It seems that this sleeve arrow is from the same person's hand, and several of us received such a sleeve arrow, but what we saw was not a request for help, but it was written that Zhenxingtang was going to make a big move recently, let us come over and discuss how to deal with it." ”

Mattei then said: "At first, we all thought that this was a letter from you, thinking that you would use such a method because you were afraid that the letter would be robbed halfway, but we never expected that after arriving here, your disciple told us that the head of the sect had been out for more than ten days, and Niu Gao went to support you before us. We were also about to go to the Demon Wheel Cult residency when you returned. My brother and I are not as well-informed as the Daoist of Huachen Peak, so I didn't know about you going to fight the Demon Wheel Sect in advance. ”

"It's really interesting!" Zhao Jinhai rubbed his stomach and said: "This messenger has just the right time, if there is a slight deviation in time, today's situation may be more lively than what happened." ”

"I remember!" Niu Gao suddenly popped out when Zhao Jinhai finished speaking: "The man in black who helped us intercept Sikong Xuan's gang on the bridge is the one who shot me this sleeve arrow." It's just that this person's light skills are extremely good, and he disappeared in a blink of an eye, because I was worried about your safety, so I didn't care too much about this person. Now that I think about it, the man in black who delivered the letter and the person on the bridge are definitely the same person, and they can't be wrong. ”

Listening to what they said, I immediately connected these things in my mind, and said with a gritted tooth: "It's really interesting, Chen Dake and I were led to the entertainment city by this man in black, and then I met Zhao Jinhai's seniors, and then I got acquainted with Song Qing's head." He also told the news to the people who had befriended the Song master, and it was this man who intercepted the enemy for us on that bridge, so that we could escape safely. Looks like he's not our enemy. But if it's a friend, why doesn't he come to see us in real life? and I really don't understand what his purpose is. ”

After speaking, I felt that my stomach was as uncomfortable as a river and a sea, rubbed my stomach with my hands, drank a sip of hot water, and thought that it should be a mistake during the fight just now, I didn't pay attention to it at the time, and now I am starting to feel uncomfortable, so I don't particularly care.

But then Zhao Jinhai and Chen Dake's reaction made me feel that there was something wrong with this matter, the two of them should feel similar to me, the two of them had begun to sweat because of stomach pain, and they couldn't straighten their waists because of stomach pain. I also felt the pain getting stronger, and I pressed the painful area and said to the two of them, "You two are also angry?"

Zhao Jinhai shook his head and replied with the pain: "It's not like it's a fork, I feel as if I'm poisoned, the pain comes suddenly and violently, and my intestines seem to be broken." I tried to urge the internal force, but I couldn't use any strength, and the internal force couldn't be gathered, it must be the ghosts of the Devil's Wheel Sect. ”

The change in the three of us was indeed sudden, and we were all fine, but at this moment when we were talking, our kung fu suddenly failed, and the rest of us noticed.

Ma Guang walked to Zhao Jinhai's side, stretched out his hand and put his hand on his veins, that is, he let go of his hand in a few seconds, came to me and Chen Dake, pinched our veins one by one, closed his eyes slightly and asked us, "Have the three of you ever eaten anything strange?"

"No, I'm very careful about what I eat, and I will never eat anything I haven't seen. Zhao Jinhai said after thinking for a while.

But I remembered that the three of us had indeed eaten strange things, so I said to Ma Guang: "The three of us ate the snacks they gave us before we were captured, and apart from these, we haven't even drunk a drop of water today, could it be that this snack is poisonous?"

Ma Guang let go of our hands, returned to his seat and said, "That's right, it's just that the heart is poisonous." ”

Zhao Jinhai couldn't believe it: "Impossible, I have been strictly trained before, no matter what kind of high-grade poison is in the food, I can identify it, and it is impossible to use my hands and feet on the dim sum." ”

Ma Guang ignored him, and first said to Song Qing: "Master Song, can you borrow your pharmacy?"

Song Qing replied very happily: "I'm still poor and polite, why do you use it yourself." ”

Then Ma Guang said a few more names to Ma Tai, Ma Tai left, closed the door Ma Guang said to Zhao Jinhai: "We heard that Xiangge is good at making spices, but we also know the poisons in the world, and one of you is not an ordinary poison, but the poison of the colorful cocoon chrysalis from Miao Jiang." The colorful cocoon pupae are dried and mashed into flour, which is the same as flour. Just now, Brother Xiao said that you have eaten the dim sum given by those people, so there will be no mistake. And are you not able to use your internal force when you fight them, and you will feel dizzy as long as you forcibly use it?"

Because Chen Dake and I have not practiced internal skills, the feeling is not very obvious, of course, although I have practiced for a few days, it is no different from not practicing. Zhao Jinhai is different, after Ma Guang finished speaking, he recalled a little and said: "Yes, if you are indeed forcibly using internal force, you will get dizzy, I thought it was because I didn't eat, but I didn't expect that I would be planted on it." ”

"Look, I'm right, but don't worry, this poison will not be fatal, but it will make you unable to use internal force for half a month, and it is estimated that they just want to weaken their combat effectiveness to do so. The Demon Wheel Sect can really find anything, and this colorful cocoon chrysalis is very expensive. I asked my brother-in-law to fetch some herbs, and within a quarter of an hour he would be fine. ”

It wasn't long before Mattei returned, holding a couple of strange-looking bugs in his hands. Ma Guang asked him to hand us these bugs, and then said, "This is the antidote, just eat it directly." ”

Although I was more resistant, for the sake of my body, I still held my nose and swallowed these strange-looking insects. It was really amazing, and in less than a quarter of an hour, the three of us were completely recovered. Just as we were chatting, a disciple suddenly came from outside the door to report: "Master, something is wrong." ”
